"Religion is like a penis, it's fine that you have one. As long as you don't shove it down my throat."
And yet. All religion based stuff I've seen over the past 6 months have basically been nothing but bullying religion.

Last time I posted this, I got bombarded with red thumbs, so here goes nothing:

The quote you posted refers to the real world, where in some communities, religion does get instilled into people. For instance, when I was around 9 years along, my Grandma basically manipulated my childlike innocence and attempted to make me extremely religious. Moreover, the beauty of the Internet is that it permits you to skip anything you dislike; You don't like anti-religion posts? Then ignore them!

The misconception here is that atheists criticising religion do so extensively in real life. This is impossible because if the given atheist has friends, then he won't act like a social idiot and persistently attack religion. On the other hand, if he doesn't, then he has no one to preach to, right? Hence why there are so many anti-religion posts on the Internet as opposed to real life.

My final point is that it is unfair to merely blame atheist posts. What about posts poking fun at black people and untreatable diseases? It's been pretty much established that everyone laughs at these issues on the Internet, yet I don't see anyone complaining about how they've been "bullied".

Except their are always a certain amount of people who take offense to any of those joke subjects. This one is kinda just stupid. Here's the deal: Let ******* christians worship what they want as long as they don't bother you, and then you have no right to bash on any religion. I just think it's funny to watch people fight over religion... whether your atheist of faithful, you just don't get the messege if you keep fighting with others about it.

I respect peoples religion and understand it is very important to them but that still doesn't stop me from enjoying religious jokes which are funny.

I just find it very curious as to why people on this website and in other walks of life are hyper-sensitive when it comes to the subject of religion yet at the same time find discriminative jokes or jokes involving mass-genocide acceptable? This question isn't rhetorical, I'd actually like to know the answer. anyone?
